Chapter 729: Chapter 384: Sacred Blood Secret Realm
Demon-slaying Points from the Demon Hunting Bureau are a valuable commodity, equivalent to essence and blood, and can be used to exchange for various items in the Demon Hunting Bureau’s treasury.
Unfortunately, the Demon King’s corpse on him has already been refined.
The elder was silent for a moment before he sighed, shook his head, and said, “Demon-slaying Points are set up by our Demon Hunting Bureau to encourage members to hunt demons, targeting ordinary martial artists.”
“King-level powerhouses are not included; otherwise, the points they get from hunting demons would have emptied our treasury long ago.”
Was it a no-go? Su Nan wasn’t disappointed either.
The elder was right; any king-level powerhouse easily hunting a king-level demon would earn astronomical Demon-slaying Points. If they could exchange those points, the Demon Hunting Bureau’s treasury would indeed collapse.
Since there were no Demon-slaying Points, Su Nan didn’t push for it and continued to exchange essence and blood according to his original plan.
At the same exchange rate as before at Tiangong Pavilion, he exchanged 20 points of king-level demon essence blood for 4,000 drops of spirit grade essence blood and 40,000 drops of mortal grade essence blood.
Now, the amount of mortal grade essence blood and spirit grade essence blood in his hands directly doubled.
Of course, of the more than 50 drops of king-level demon essence blood, only a dozen or so remained.
After finishing the essence and blood exchange, Su Nan declined the elder’s offer to take him to Ten Thousand Demon Ridge and left on his own.
“It’s about time. I should go back,” he thought to himself.
The Skywolf Clan’s Skywolf Grand Trials had already begun, and the selection of the various clan’s geniuses would take place today. He had to go back.
…
“As in previous trials, on the first day, the Sacred Blood Secret Realm will be opened, and the top 100 will be selected. On the second day, the top 50 will be selected through drawing lots and dueling. After that, the number of contestants will decrease daily.”
“The rewards this time are extremely generous. In addition to entering the Skywolf Palace and a chance to visit the ancestral land, the top ten will receive extra rewards, and the top three will receive a drop of emperor-level essence blood preserved from ancient times!”
The morning sun blazed like fire.
Picking Stars Peak, midway up the mountain.
Various demonic clans gathered here to participate in the Skywolf Grand Trials. Many were itching to show their prowess in the competition, while others sighed with regret.
“It took a lot of effort to break through to the king-level and qualify for the Skywolf Grand Trials. I thought I could get a good ranking this time, but I didn’t expect so many geniuses to show up.”
“That’s right. Our king-level early-stage strength would make us a demon king elsewhere, but here, making it into the top 100 is a challenge.”
“Sigh, I don’t know whether our luck is good or bad. We managed to catch up with the prime era of this world’s spiritual energy recovery, but we can only serve as stepping stones for those geniuses.”
“My requirements aren’t that high. As long as I can enter the top 100, I’ll be content. As long as I make it into the top 100, I can enter the Skywolf Palace and have a chance to obtain some fortuitous opportunities.”
As they glanced around, many people’s gazes fell on several young men and women.
Without exception, all of them were at the peak of the king-level stage.
As they were watching, several figures walked slowly toward them, two men and a woman, all of them with extraordinary appearances – the men were handsome and the woman was beautiful.
Upon seeing the newcomers, the crowd’s faces changed, and they quickly made way.
“It’s Zi Que, Jin Que, and Lan Que from the Lu Guang Sparrow Clan. Their clan has been ranked among the top ten of our Ten Thousand Demon Ridge for 500 consecutive years, and they almost made it into the top three last time.”
“The three siblings, Zi Que, Jin Que, and Lan Que, who came to participate in the Skywolf Grand Trials have all reached the peak of the king level a few years ago. Zi Que, who is at the forefront, has already completed her bloodline reversal. They have come to strive for the Skywolf inheritance!”
Seeing the three from the Lu Guang Sparrow Clan, many people felt threatened and grave.
While they were talking, three brawny-looking young men came, as imposing as small mountains, giving everyone an invisible sense of oppression.
“It’s Lie Shan, Shi Ba, and…”
The three brawny youths arrived and were instantly recognized by everyone. However, as they were speaking, their eyes fell on the shortest youth among the three and hesitated for a moment.
“It’s Iron Palm! He actually came. This is truly surprising.”
“The Golden Bone Ape Clan’s generation produced quite a few outstanding talents. I heard that there were a total of five geniuses who reached the peak king-level in their generation within the clan. Besides Lie Shan and Shi Ba, one of them is Ape Ancient.”
“Now that Ape Ancient isn’t here and Iron Palm has come instead, it’s obvious that Iron Palm is also extraordinary.”
As they were talking, someone seemed to remember something and looked towards the Skywolf Clan, saying, “I heard that a dark horse from the Skywolf Clan has also appeared, easily defeating Bai Yu.”
Upon hearing this, the others were startled. “Really? In the Skywolf Clan, other than the two daughters of the Heavenly Wolf Emperor who have been outside the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, there doesn’t seem to be anyone who has reached the king-level peak, right?”
“It’s true. That person reportedly returned with the Heavenly Wolf Emperor’s eldest daughter and belonged to the group who had left the Skywolf Clan years ago.”
Everyone looked towards the members of the Skywolf Clan.
They saw the Great Princess and her two companions standing side by side, but Su Nan was nowhere to be seen.
No one knew that Su Nan was rushing back at top speed at this very moment.
As the three characters broke through the king-level stage, the range of heavenly forces they could control expanded again, and Su Nan’s speed also increased dramatically. What should have taken him at least several hours was shortened once more.
As all the geniuses from the major demon clans gathered, Su Nan finally returned to Picking Stars Peak.
The moment he arrived, a prompt for mission completion appeared.
[Congratulations on completing the first stage of the main mission “Stealing the Essence Blood of the Demon Saint.” Do you wish to claim your reward immediately?]
